New Fancy Camera

David gave me a new camera for my birthday and I'm so excited about taking lots of pictures. Here are a few that i've taken already although I need to figure out how to get rid of the red eye and I have a tendency to chop off part of the people's heads when taking the picture, but i'm having fun in spite of these shortcomings.

Aunt Mercy....


Aunt Mercy makes a funny face....

Caught red handed eating a tissue - gross!

Videos and Pictures....

Suzanne's brother Dan came into town to meet Luke

Here's his picture with Luke, and.....


Here's another picture that was taken 30 seconds later! Luke is crying....things change quickly!


This is a picture of David giving Luke his first bottle and he ate for about 10 minutes before he realized that he was getting milk from Dad instead of Mom and that just didn't seem right. After SCREAMING for awhile, Mom fed him and then Dad finished up with the bottle. He had a second meal from a bottle last night and that went even better even though we had another scream fest.


Luke's baby dedication was on Sunday and this the picture that was displayed on the big screen during the dedication. Isn't this cute??


Another picture....


Luke is using the pacifier more often....(thankfully!)


Luke smiling in his sleep...


David's family got together on Friday night since several of his sisters were in town.

And here's a picture of Aunt Sarah and Luke. Sarah is expected her first in September - a boy named Jackson. Yet another skiing and hiking buddy for Luke.



We had a new roof installed on thursday so Luke and Mom hung out at a friend's house for the day. Ashley, one of Suzanne's old neighbors, came by to visit Luke. She's expecting her first baby in December.


A yawn...


Here's a video - I call this one Mommom's kisses....

I went to my women's group today and Luke found Kristi's shoulder to be very comfortable...


On Friday, Luke and I went to a tea party for all of the babies born in May. As you can see we took a couple of pictures but Luke wasn't very happy until the very end after he had scooted over enough to be touching the baby next to him.

Crying...!


Finally quiet...


All of the babies together...

We snapped a picture with Carol who helped deliver Luke.


Luke enjoys it when he's diaper free so I let him "air out" for awhile. He went potty 4 times during this time! i'm thankful for puddle pads



On Saturday, Luke and I went to the grocery store for the first time by ourselves. I have to admit that I was a little nervous but he slept the entire time. Shewwww
